Tender Herbs (Amy Rosen)

No offence to rosemary and thyme, but this collection of herbaceous recipes focuses on the softies with tender stalks: parsley, dill, basil, chives, cilantro and mint. Whether herbs are the star ingredient, as in Chive Toast, Dill Rosti, and a proper cuppa Mint Tea, or an accent in Halibut & Red Grapefruit Ceviche and Fried Eggplant with Burrata, Amy Rosen makes a friendly case for celebrating this abundant and inexpensive ingredient. Tender herbs add fresh flavour, a burst of colour and a boost of flavonoids: a cook’s trifecta. Includes tips on storing fresh herbs and using up those leftover springs. Hip Herb Hurrah!
